Little Cat Feet

Shaggy and his littermate brother Scooby came to live with us in October 2005, when they were 5 years old. Scout arrived in 2006 at the age of 6 weeks. Scooby passed over very suddenly to the Rainbow Bridge on April 1, 2012 and is remembered fondly and missed deeply.

Zolie Girl Gets Close


Mom leaned out the window of the sun room and got this rather blurry picture of Zolie. She will sit on the railing right up close to the windows, look into the house and watch us.
Mom was hurrying because she knew Zolie would be spooked by this action and had to get the picture quick before she moved. It was a nice day and the window was already open, not needing a screen because the bugs aren't out yet.
And Zolie did jump down right after she took it.
She is such a gorgeous girl and has filled out nicely since mom trapped her and had her spayed last summer. Her furs are especially luxurious.
She was on the deck last night washing her nether regions right in front of the sliding door last night, and has been lying in a nest mom made in the wheelbarrow in the garage without running every time the door opens. Feeling more comfortable to just watch the people come & go.

Zolie is so pretty! She looks relaxed but alert and ready to bolt if she feels it is necessary!

We are glad she is getting more relaxed around your humans. That's wonderful. Perhaps she will stay around more where it is safe?

It may take a long time to earn Zolie's trust, but you are doing good.

Zolie's coming around! You know, it took Pee two years before she would sit on the far end of the couch with Mom. (Now she jumps up to claim Mom's lap before Mom has even sat down!)

This makes us so happy. I imagine one day your Mom will be on the deck reading and Zolie will sneak up and start rubbing against her legs for some love. She looks great!

Our human staff (and photographer) understands about first getting a shot, any shot, then trying for better. You try getting too much, you risk not getting anything. We hope Zolie will continue to learn to trust you.

Are you SURE she might not get used to being an indoor cat? We think she is showing signs of wanting to come in...
